Whether you're using frozen fish for an easy meal or you're prepping to feed a group for a weekend fish fry, use mustard on your next batch of fried fish to make it extra crispy.
French's yellow mustard is a perfect binder for fried fish. Not only does it keep in the natural juices and fish oils, it lends its own flavors to the dish, making it tastier.
Use mustard to make any kind of fried white fish and be prepared to use a quite a bit; it can take around ½ cup of mustard to get the job done. Liberally coat all your filets.
Yellow mustard is standard, but
you can pair different styles with different kinds of fish. For lighter flavored fish, use yellow or Dijon mustard for their lighter flavor notes.
